Shoppers are rushing to the John Lewis website for an early Christmas deal that offers £58-worth of cult Korean beauty products for under £15. The John Lewis K-Beauty Box is packed with bestselling brands and is positioned as a festive gift or stocking filler for skincare enthusiasts.
The box, containing five products, is currently priced at £28.50 including a £4.50 delivery charge on the John Lewis website. However, new TopCashback members can claim a £15 cashback offer when they sign up and spend at least £15, bringing the total cost down to £14.29 after cashback, including delivery. For existing TopCashback members, the set works out at £29.29 with delivery.
What's Inside the Box
The K-Beauty Box includes a mix of bestselling Korean brands, such as Dr.Jart+, SKIN1004 and medicube, offering a way to try the glass-skin trend without paying full price. Among the items is a Purito Wonder Releaf Centella Serum Unscented, 60ml, worth £20 on its own. This full-size serum contains centella asiatica, panthenol and niacinamide, and is designed to hydrate, soothe redness and support the skin barrier without added fragrance.
The serum has earned five-star reviews at Boots and LookFantastic. One reviewer commented: "Loving this serum now that the seasons are changing and my skin is drier than normal! Also appreciate that it's unscented." Another added: "This serum feels gentle and soothing, and helps my skin look calmer and more balanced. It absorbs easily and provides a lovely boost of hydration without feeling heavy. The fragrance-free formula is ideal for sensitive skin and layers really well with other products."
Not all feedback has been positive, with one shopper noting: "Was expecting more from this as the moisturiser is pretty good but after a few weeks of using it, I can’t see or feel any difference in my skin." A fourth reviewer said: "This serum is light weight, hydrating, and leaves your skin super glowy. No irritation, simply just leaves the skin plump and glass like."
Additional Products and Alternatives
Alongside the Purito serum, the box includes an Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam, 25ml, aimed at those with excess oil or congested pores, working to remove impurities and gently exfoliate. There is also a SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Asiatica 100 Ampoule Serum, 30ml, which focuses on calming the appearance of redness.
Two face masks complete the set: the Dr.Jart+ Ceramidin Facial Barrier Mask, a full-size sheet mask designed to deliver intense moisture while supporting the skin's natural barrier, and the medicube PDRN Pink Collagen Gel Mask, featuring PDRN, a buzzy ingredient in Korean beauty that aims to leave skin smoother, plumper and more radiant.
For comparison, Boots offers the K+J Beauty Skin Edit, a nine-piece routine centred on hydration, barrier protection and luminosity, priced at £35 but worth over £140. It includes full-sized products from Beauty of Joseon, Dr Jart, Haruharu Wonder, Curél and Laka, alongside items from Biodance, Purito and Genabelle. At LookFantastic, the 12 Days Of K-Beauty Advent is worth over £140 but priced at £50, featuring brands such as medicube, Biodance, Tocobo and INNISFREE, with one product inside worth £28 on its own.
